I have fallen in love with this city, with my bike, and with 4am shwarma. Copenhagen is not just a goldmine for design and architecture, but coffee shops, bars, art, live music and of course, biking. Coming off the back of three weeks travelling through Italy and Mallorca, I was a little nervous as to…

It’s crazy to think that a little over 2 months ago I was packing like crazy, doing a Marie Kondo kind of thing where I was asking myself “Do I really need this? Will it bring me joy in Copenhagen?” Just a quick word of advice – bring a raincoat and it will definitely spark…

Copenhagen, Denmark. When this city and country first came to mind, what were your thoughts? The age of Vikings? The welfare state the Scandinavian countries have become known for?

Hej (pronounced like “hi” in English) from Copenhagen! I’ve been in this city for just under two weeks and it’s already a place I could easily see myself calling home for the next four months. Having already done some travelling around Europe for the first half of August (mainly France, Italy, Germany and the Netherlands),…

I arrived in Aarhus mid-September and was extremely lucky to enjoy the last of the good weather before the rain set in. It rains every other day here in Aarhus, so remember a raincoat! (I didn’t…) My host uni (DMJX) is fairy similar to UTS. It’s a much smaller school and campus but class sizes…

Copenhagen has heaps to do every day of the week– this has been so refreshing after coming from Sydney. There are events on for every hour of the day, and countless museums, parks, bridges, monuments, bakeries, flea markets, art festivals and restaurants to go to. I’ve been here for exactly one month, and I have…

When I first arrived in the city of Copenhagen, coming from the warm summer of Sydney, I had to adjust quickly to the drastic drop of temperature as it was CHILLY. Despite the cold weather, it didn’t take me long for me to start loving the beautiful city, the colourful buildings and the overall amazing…

Hej from Aarhus! I have been living in this beautiful city for the past two months and I am absolutely loving it. Aarhus is a small town characterised by its cobblestone streets, cosy cafes and love for biking. It is also known as a university town which means that it’s filled with students. This creates…

I’ve been in Copenhagen for about a month now – and am absolutely loving it! It’s the most beautiful city I’ve ever been to, and is full of historic architecture, cobblestone streets and canals. However, if you’re thinking of beginning your exchange in February, (during the Danish winter), bring a big, warm coat! The temperature…
